Reverting my edits

edit

Hi, just wondered why you were reverting my edits? 2.96.227.72 (talk) 20:28, 30 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

 
Hey welcome back politialguru. Haven't seen you for a while, how have you been? 10mmsocket (talk) 05:54, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
I see you're having fun at Cleveland Police. I'm sure @Mutt Lunker will keep an eye out too. 10mmsocket (talk) 21:51, 4 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
I have noticed both of you are still reverting my edits on all articles. Please can you explain what you are trying to achieve? It’s sad you are doing this. I suspect you may be getting me confused with another user. Although, I’m not sure how given our usernames aren’t remotely similar. If you have a problem with my edits, let’s sort this out by asking moderators to step in. 2.96.227.72 (talk) 15:11, 5 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
It's really easy. We hate sockpuppetry. You are banned for life from Wikipedia. You are not allowed to edit and any edits that you make can / should be reverted regardless of their merit. 10mmsocket (talk) 15:13, 5 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
I am concerned by your behaviour. I think you are mistaking me for somebody else. At what point have I been banned? I would recommend chilling out. Anyway, I’ll be making sure your behaviour is flagged to moderators one way or another. 2.96.227.72 (talk) 15:19, 5 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks to both of you. 10mmsocket (talk) 15:49, 5 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

For the benefit of any others landing here. Mutt Lunker (talk) 15:35, 5 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

IP blocked again. That was easy! 10mmsocket (talk) 13:43, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Reverted edits

edit

Hi, I saw that you've reverted my edits on the Irritable bowel syndrome article. Please note that removing constant mentioning of study types is according to WikiProject Medicine guidelines. It does not add any extra information (we should use secondary sources anyway and the paper's title in the reference will tell the reader what kind of study it is). More importantly it makes Wikipedia articles less accessible and written more like an academic paper. The average reader does not know and does not have to know what a meta analysis means. I'll reinstate my edits, please let me know if you disagree with any on a case-by-case basis.

Best wishes, Adam Adam Harangozó (talk) 09:15, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Per my post at Talk:Irritable_bowel_syndrome#Rephrasing and my edit summary, that's not why I reverted. I've continued the discussion there. Cheers. Mutt Lunker (talk) 14:39, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Scotland article city coordinates

edit

Hi @Mutt Lunker, of course, you're absolutely correct that both coordinate systems are valid. The purpose of my change to the coordinates on the Scotland article was to condense 4 lines of text into two with no loss of information. Infoboxes are already long unwieldy things without wasting valuable space. Dgp4004 (talk) 12:45, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the explanation but that would appear to depend on one's display setup, is of minimal benefit if any and certainly not to the extent of effectively invalidating the original format, in my view. Mutt Lunker (talk) 13:22, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
They're also overly precise for the coordinates of a city but I'll leave them as they are then. Dgp4004 (talk) 14:44, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, the level of precison did occur to me too but, per WP:OPCOORD, the centre of settlements "may be an arbitrarily chosen civic feature" and "must be specified with a precision of degrees, minutes and seconds to respect historical norms... or d.dddd". To, for example, drop the seconds could mean being around 1 km out. Mutt Lunker (talk) 15:09, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
